Key players continue their affiliation with the club, paving the way for a possible return to competitive play.
Saprissa Femenino is actively considering a return to high-level women's football, contingent upon developments within the Primera División. Two of the club's prominent figures, Gloriana Villalobos and Carolina Venegas, have confirmed their ongoing association with Saprissa, which may serve as a foundation for rebuilding the team.
Both players, who were sidelined due to injuries when Saprissa opted to suspend its women's project, have been retained by the club, ensuring their recovery under the club's medical staff.
Gloriana Villalobos expressed her commitment to the club, stating her continued rehabilitation with the team's medical team and her training activities alongside fellow players.
She indicated that should an official announcement regarding the reactivation of the women's team be made, her next step would be to discuss her contractual status with club management.
Villalobos, who scored four of the fifteen goals in a notable victory against Pérez Zeledón, is optimistic about the future of women's football in
Costa Rica, particularly with the recent developments regarding the governance structure of the sport.
She highlighted her enthusiasm for the prospect of a more equitable and developed championship.
Villalobos has been recovering from a knee injury that sidelined her for over six months but remains hopeful about the evolution of the women's game in
Costa Rica, especially with the Unafut's anticipated leadership in the competition.
The Costa Rican Football Federation is spearheading an initiative to transition the management of the Primera División and High Performance leagues to Unafut, while the second division and youth categories would shift to Uniffut.
This restructuring has implications for teams like Saprissa and Herediano, which are expected to return to the Primera División, joining established teams such as Alajuelense, Sporting, Dimas, Pococí, and Chorotega, with one additional team yet to be determined.
